lldp transmit-interval

Sets the interval between regular Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) packet transmissions.
Syntax
lldp transmit-interval seconds
no lldp transmit-interval
Command Default

When LLDP is enabled, the transmit interval between LLDP packets is set to 30 seconds.

Parameters
seconds
Configures the time interval, in seconds, between LLDP packet transmissions. The value can range from 5 through 32768.
Modes

Global configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

Setting the transmit interval or transmit holdtime multiplier, or both, to inappropriate values can cause the LLDP agent to transmit LLDP PDUs with TTL values that are excessively high. This in turn can affect how long a receiving device retains the information if it is not refreshed.

The no form of the command removes the configured value and sets the time interval between LLDP packet transmissions to 30 seconds.

Examples

The following example sets the time interval between LLDP packet transmissions to 100 seconds. 

device(config)# lldp transmit-interval 40
